A Documentary on the State of the VAMCIts documented that every day 20 veterans commit suicide...how many more need to die until we get them the medical care they need. We're researching the need for a documentary showing the hardships, and difficulty's that face our wounded comrades every day.

Robert Wilson is an energetic, detail-oriented and
insightful coach. He's guided me to the best comprehensive IT program to gain
the expertise I want with my transition into the civilian business environment.
He answered all my questions, made recommendations, and expedited the system so
I could start training in days, not weeks. Further, he made it clear he's
always available to work with me as I go through the initial training and my
future upgrade courses. I highly recommend him to not only current and retired
military, but to everyone who's interested in moving into the field of
Information Technology. Begin your journey with him at the helm.” Fred Jackson,
